Alumni Progress Club: Science of Creativity
Part of the personal development lecture series from the Alumni Progress Club
How does creativity really work? What happens in our brains when we have an idea? And what impact could AI have on ideation?
In this inspiring, interactive session, Kristof Geilenkotten – engineer, entrepreneur and creative mind – takes us on a deep dive into the science behind creativity.
Through real-world examples, exercises and insights from the fields of neuroscience, psychology and AI, we’ll explore how creative thinking can be broken down, measured – and even enhanced.
Join this lecture to stretch your mind and rethink what’s possible. We’ll discuss:
- How fluency, flexibility, originality and elaboration shape creative potential
- Why our brains like to consider options – and why this matters
- How AI is challenging and expanding human creativity
- Practical tools to strengthen your own creative skills
Whether you're leading a team, launching a venture or rethinking your career, this session will help you unlock creative power in ways you never imagined.
This event is one of ten personal development lectures hosted by the Alumni Progress Club.
